I am Israel
Article from The Daily - Washington State University, Feb. 25, 2002
I am Israel - I came to a land without a people for a people without a land.
Those people who happened to be here, had no right to be here, and my people
showed them they had to leave or die, razing 480 Palestinian villages to the
ground, erasing their history.
I am Israel - some of my people committed massacres and later became Prime
Ministers to represent me. In 1948, Menachem Begin was in charge of the unit
that slaughtered the inhabitants of Deir Yassin, including 100 men, women, and
children. In 1953, Ariel Sharon led the slaughter of the inhabitants of Qibya,
and in 1982 arranged for our allies to butcher around 2,000 in the refugee
camps of Sabra and Shatilla.
I am Israel - carved in 1948 out of 78% of the land of Palestine, dispossessing
its inhabitants and replacing them with Jews from Europe and other parts of the
world. While the natives whose families lived on this land for thousands of
years are not allowed to return, Jews from all over the world are welcome to
instant citizenship.
I am Israel - in 1967, I swallowed the remaining lands of Palestine - the West
Bank and Gaza - and placed their inhabitants under an oppressive military rule,
controlling and humiliating every aspect of their daily lives. Eventually, they
should get the message that they are not welcome to stay, and join the millions
of Palestinian refugees in the shanty camps of Lebanon and Jordan.
I am Israel - I have the power to control American policy. My American Israel
Public Affairs Committee can make or break any politician of its choosing, and
as you see, they all compete to please me. All the forces of the world are
powerless against me, including the UN as I have the American veto to block any
condemnation of my war crimes. As Sharon so eloquently phrased it, "We control
America".
I am Israel - I influence American mainstream media too, and you will always
find the news tailored to my favor. I have invested millions of dollars into PR
representation, and CNN, New York Times, and others have been doing an
excellent job of promoting my propaganda. Look at other international news
sources and you will see the difference.
I am Israel - and you Palestinians want to negotiate "peace!?" But you are not
as smart as me; I will negotiate, but will only let you have your
municipalities while I control your borders, your water, your airspace, and
anything else of importance.
While we "negotiate," I will swallow your hilltops and fill them with
settlements, populated by the most extremist of my extremists, armed to the
teeth. These settlements will be connected with roads you cannot use, and you
will be imprisoned in your little Bantustans between them, surrounded by
checkpoints in every direction.
I am Israel - with the fourth strongest army in the world, possessing nuclear
weapons. How dare your children confront my oppression with stones, don't you
know my soldiers won't hesitate to blow their heads off? In 17 months, I have
killed 900 of you and injured 17,000, mostly civilians, and have the mandate to
continue since the international community remains silent. Ignore, as I do, the
hundreds of Israeli soldiers who are now refusing to carry out my control over
your lands and people; their voices of conscience will not protect you.
I am Israel - and you want freedom? I have bullets, tanks, missiles, Apaches,
and F-16's, to obliterate you. I have placed your towns under siege,
confiscated your lands, uprooted your trees, demolished your homes, and you
still demand freedom? Don't you get the message? You will never have peace or
freedom, because I am Israel.

Sesungguhnya, hanya dengan mengingat Allah, hati akan tenang.
now surely by Allah's remembrance are the hearts set at rest.
N'est-ce point par l'évocation d'Allah que se tranquillisent les coeurs.
im Gedenken Allahs ist's, daß Herzen Trost finden können.
